The future of high-end TVs

Following the death of 3D TV, the future of high-end televisions lies in the advancement of new display panel technology.

While LCD panels have proven remarkably adaptable and remain a popular choice among TV manufacturers, emerging technologies such as OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) panels could overtake traditional displays and allow for higher resolutions, better refresh rates, and more colours.

While various mid-range consumer TVs still use LCD panels with a resolution of 1080p, TV manufacturers seized the chance to show off bold new designs at CES 2017– including ultra-thin displays and UHD TVs with 8K resolutions.

If the potential capabilities of these new technologies are anything to go by, here’s what you can expect from your TV in the future.
